McCarthy, a former federal prosecutor, got the “Blind Sheikh” Omar
Abdel-Rahman locked up for his role masterminding the first World Trade
Center jihad attack in 1993. And so respected was McCarthy by that
killer, he referred to him as "Sheikh Andy."

So when a man of
McCarthy's stature warns of the "grand jihad" or as Spencer coined it
"the stealth jihad," you can be sure the nation is in trouble.

Andrew McCarthy knows what it meant when Barack
Obama bowed to the Saudi king: “The President’s bow to the Saudi king
should have surprised no one. It was a submission to their mutual
aspiration: a symbolic moment in the transformation from the America
that was, to the America of Barack Obama’s fancy, a vision that would
mark a giant leap forward for the global Islamist project.”

When I
interviewed him in November 2009 about the Obama Administration’s plans
to move the 9/11 terror trials to New York City, McCarthy explained
what is also the main
point of his book: “Jihad is anything that
advances their cause, which is to establish sharia as a first step
towards Islamicizing this society. So anything that they can advance the
cause with is properly categorized as jihad.”

Anything they can
advance the cause with—not just terror attacks. The Grand Jihad is about
all the many ways that the Muslim Brotherhood is working to “establish
sharia as a first step towards Islamicizing this society,” with willing
help from President Obama and others among the America-hating left.

The
book’s title comes from a Muslim Brotherhood document that came to
light during the Holy Land Foundation jihad charity trial in 2007, that
said that the Brothers in the U.S. “must understand that their work in
America is a kind of grand jihad in eliminating and destroying the
Western civilization from within and ‘sabotaging’ its miserable house by
their hands and the hands of the believers so that it is eliminated and
God’s religion [meaning Islam] is made victorious over all other
religions.”

In The Grand Jihad, McCarthy shows all the
ways the Brotherhood is working to make Islam victorious in the U.S. He
explains how the Brotherhood works through its supposedly “moderate”
front organizations like the Muslim American Society and the Council on
American-Islamic Relations, which tries to intimidate Americans (as in
the “Flying Imams” case) into being afraid to oppose jihad activity or
even report suspicious behavior by Muslims.

McCarthy also shows
how they’ve infiltrated at the highest levels, placing Muslim
Brotherhood operatives in government agencies where they hinder
anti-terror efforts, as when Islamic law expert Steve Coughlin was fired
from his job in the Pentagon at the instigation of Hesham Islam, a
Brotherhood-linked operative who was an assistant to Bush’s Deputy
Defense Secretary Gordon England. McCarthy explains how they are now
also running candidates for office, like Esam Omeish of Virginia,
positioning them as “moderate” when they’re anything but.
